Original 1st printing 5&1/2 x 8&1/2" double-sided concert handbill/top 30 radio survey (CFOX-AM) forthe 6/27-28/1970 edition of the Trans Continental Pop Festival, held at the Canadian National Exhibition Park Stadium in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Acts listed include the Grateful ("Greatful") Dead, Janis Joplin, the Band, Buddy Guy, Delaney & Bonnie and Friends, Mashmakan, Robert Charlebois, James & the Good Brothers, Eric Andersen, Mountain, Ian & Sylvia and the Great Speckled Bird, Tom Rush, Traffic, Melanie, Sea Train and Ten Years After (the reverse side also has the top 30 hits for the week of 6/19/1970, along with a 7-UP-sponsored contest to "meet Three Dog Night in New York!"). Thin flat stock handbill is in very good to excellent (B/B+ to B+) condition; a semi-flattened horizontal center crease, a few stray handling/edge dings and one or two tiny surface scuffs, otherwise fine. Unlike the posters and larger flyers, this version actually lists the show as "Festival Express" instead of "Trans-Continental Pop Festival". We also have a PURPLE version of this handbill listed separately. Uncommon handbill from the legendary train tour, check out Janis Joplin performing "Tell Mama" at the show; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qd8WeWHrOGE
